Yes maam! I am one of the 99.9999% myself. The whole Uvalde story almost made me ill (as in commode hugging) and I’m a pretty tough guy! I don’t know when ANYTHING had as horrific an effect on me as imagining those beautiful little kids on the other side of that wall bleeding to death and nobody helping them. I must have said to myself a hundred times.........”you gotta be kidding!”

As a developer for 50 years, I can tell you that a normal “man” can put his fist through any normal sheetrock wall. Waiting for ANYTHING was criminal dereliction of duty (in my opinion).

“Duty” in the face of bullets coming your direction is HARD but those kids on those landing crafts at Omaha Beach somehow managed to do their duty! MANY THANKS to the Border Patrol guys that sucked it up and busted through that door and killed the guy.

Excellent post, Cen-Tejas. You’ve just described what so very many felt that day.

I don’t know any parent who would not have charged that SOB, taken a few bullets, and saved the kids. It’s all so unimaginable that it’s hard to believe. I remember watching parents be put on the ground by law enforcement. (Which leads me to believe that there is something very wrong with this story.)

I remember watching and thinking of the parents, “Don’t ask. Go around to the other side without asking, jump the fence and go in any window or door you can! Go to your car and crash the fence if you have to. (Of course, that was me being keyboard Mom from far away. I certainly do not blame the parents. They should not have been held back from their own children.)

This regime’s false flags aren’t even creative anymore. They’re in your face.

Zero respect for those that hesitated and listened to the gunfire ......while children were slaughtered .

They never even bothered to exploit the back windows.

A competent SWAT team would have hit the windows and doors simultaneously. Squads crawl into position under the line of sight, then rise, break and rake the windows, and take out the shooter.

Indeed.
Appears that just being there isn’t the key, like you said, “Motivation”!
